Top Children's Museum of Portsmouth Hotel Reviews

Residence Inn by Marriott Portsmouth Downtown/ Waterfront

8/10 Good

"The hotel appears to be on the newer side. The facility is very nice along with the rooms. The only disappointment was the hotel breakfast. I tried eating there two days in a row and had to throw my food in the garbage. It was inedible."

The Bow Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location was excellent. Within walking distance of many many shops and restaurants. Very quaint 10 room hotel. Loved the sheets, linens and comfortable bed. Had complimentary bikes that could be used. Overall a greatly enjoyed our stay."

Hampton Inn & Suites Portsmouth Downtown

8/10 Good

"This stay was great location to the town walking area of shops and dinning. The front desk staff was very kind and helpful. The room and hotel was very clean. The bed was a little hard for me but for one night it was fine."

Treadwell Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms and location are absolutely perfect!"

Quality Inn Portsmouth

8/10 Good

"Staff was polite room was nice breakfast was good and the hot tub was realizing"

Martin Hill Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely little Inn close to downtown. Quiet, comfortable bed, lovely bath."

The Water Street Inn

8/10 Good

"The property is three floors. Room 1 is on the bottom floor, underneath all of the stairs. We were on the third floor, thank goodness! The stairs are steep, and there are quite a few of them if you’re staying in Room 5 or 6. We were in Room 6. The room was small but nicely decorated. The rooms are also very close together, which didn’t feel particularly private. We felt like we had to whisper and keep the TV low because we didn’t want to bother the room that was only about 15 feet away. On the positive side, the free parking and location were great. The bed was comfortable, and the towels were great. Overall, it was a cute, well-decorated property, but just be aware that the rooms are small, close together, and there are a lot of steep stairs."

Sheraton Portsmouth Harborside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice stay. Good location. Staff was very helpful and polite. I recommend staying."

Market Square Inn

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful stay. Amazing location. Incredible service ."
